Dental emergencies do not come with a warning, and when they arrive, they cause a lot of pain and disruption. Such situations require immediate dental care, and you must visit our dental clinic at the earliest to address the problem. Our dentist can analyze the symptoms and determine the severity of your condition to decide the best treatment for you.

What is a Dental Emergency?

In general, any dental problem that demands immediate treatment to alleviate severe pain, stop bleeding, or save your teeth is called a dental emergency. Dental emergencies also include all the infections that may be threatening your life. Not all dental emergencies are painful.

Toothache

If you are experiencing lingering pain and sensitivity in your tooth, it is a case of a dental emergency, and you must visit our dental clinic at once for proper examination and diagnosis.

Cracked or Broken Teeth

A crack in the teeth can grow wider and damage the inside of your teeth. It is a case of a dental emergency, and you must see our dentist right away to address the problem.

Trauma

External trauma to the mouth can be extremely painful and may even damage your jawbone as well. Our dentist will examine your teeth and determine if such trauma may damage your face and mouth.

Lost or Broken Crown or Filling

The role of dental crowns and dental fillings is to protect your teeth. A broken crown or filling may expose your teeth to infection and other problems. It may be considered a case of a dental emergency.

Jaw Pain

A throbbing pain in your jaw that you experience out of the blue also calls for immediate action to visit our dentist. The problem may also cause swelling, fever, difficulty swallowing food, or sour taste and indicates infection in many cases.

Bleeding Gums

Frequent and excessive bleeding from the gums is a dental emergency and may also indicate periodontal disease that must be treated at once to keep your tissues, gums, teeth, and bone in good health.

What Happens at the Dental Clinic?

If you are experiencing any of the above-listed abnormalities in your gums, teeth, or mouth, it is essential to visit our dental practice and seek emergency dental care. Our dentist will examine your mouth and check the cause of such conditions and then begin with the treatment. Early detection of the problem will help you keep away from more complex procedures. After the treatment, you will be given instructions to care for your teeth and maintain oral hygiene.
